Jazz/Blues

Classic/ Piano.
Carlos Cipa is a 22 year old composer/musician residing in Munich (Germany) where he is currently studying composition. Carlos discovered his passion for music very early in his life. At the age of 6 he began taking classical piano lessons with various renowned teachers. Ten years later after he started playing drums he became more and more interested in composition and improvisation. In the following years he made lots of experiences in many music styles like jazz, hardcore/punk, indie rock and orchestral music. Influenced by ERIC SATIE and CLAUDE DEBUSSY his piano music impresses particularly because of its intensity and great attention to detail. It's not only enhanced by his classical background and symphonic film music works, but also by the experiences he made as drummer in different bands. Besides the piano he is interested in all different kinds of instruments, as experimenting takes an important role in his work. Not playing just traditional concert rooms Carlos so far shared the stage with marvelous acts Like Moritz Von Oswald Trio, Murcof, Kammerflimmer Kollektief, A Winged Victory For The Sullen, Rivulets, This Will Destroy You Or Library Tapes. After he finished his works on final versions of his compositions Carlos Cipa joined the German experimental music label Denovali Records early 2012. His debut full length ""The Monarch and the Viceroy"" now sees the light of day. CD digipak. Vinyl: thick sleeves with thick printed inner sleeves; 180g vinyl different colors + free download.

Carlos Cipa 'The Monarch And The Viceroy' Vinyl Record

CARLOS CIPA is a composer and multi-instrumentalist based in Munich. He has been classically trained on the piano and currently studies contemporary classical composition at the University of Music and Performing Arts in Munich. During his teenage years he started playing drums and gained experience as a member of various bands. Experimenting with different styles of music, he turned back to piano as his main instrument, which facilitates to find his way towards composition and improvisation, before releasing his debut “The Monarch and the Viceroy” on Denovali Records in 2012. Over the last three years CARLOS CIPA played over 60 concerts all over Europe and shared the stage with like-minded musicians like HAUSCHKA, NILS FRAHM, ÓLAFUR ARNALDS and VALGEIR SIGURĐSSON. “All Your Life You Walk” is his long awaited second solo album. Carlos Cipa created unique contemporary compositions fraught with beauty, tension and emotional intensity, clearly presenting the unique voice of a composer, who is fascinated by classical and contemporary composers ranging from MOZART, DEBUSSY or RAVEL to STEVE REICH and DAVID LANG, but is also inspired by modern bands like THE NATIONAL or MOGWAI. While his first full-length solo album “The Monarch and the Viceroy” (2012) is invariably based on the piano, his second publication “Relive”(2013) – a collaborative EP with pianist/composer SOPHIA JANI – adds sounds from the inside of the piano to the compositions. On his sophomore record “All Your Life You Walk” he continues this idea by electronically altering these atmospheric sounds and gentle beats, combining them with sounds from various other instruments, before adding them to his distinctive piano playing. Over the last two years, CARLOS CIPA has been collecting instruments, that were not longer in use: An Upright Piano, a Guitaret - a very rare instrument built by Hohner in the 1960s, previously played as well by musicians like WARREN ELLIS, LEO ABRAHAM or Icelandic experimental band MÙM -, an old Framus bass guitar from the 1960s, a marimba and a “Bavarian Hackbrett” (known as hammered dulcimer), that were getting all dusty in the attic of two childhood friends, an Oceanharp, a Glockenspiel, a few other percussion instruments and an old radio receiver, that belonged to his grandparents. “All your life you walk” is a contemporary piano album, self-recorded, -performed and –produced in Carlos Cipa’s very own “Beatschuppen Studio”. Though each piece is framed as a coherent song, it’s all pieces combined that create a musical flow, spanning over the whole album, with pieces converging and so-called fragments, that either lead over or build a contrast to the surrounding pieces. CD digipak. Vinyl thick gatefold sleeves, 180g vinyl, different vinyl colours, free download code. Tracklisting: 1. Fragment #1 2. And Gently Drops The Rain 3. Hang On To Your Lights 4. Secret Longing 5. Fragment #2 6. For They Had Things To Say 7. Needle In A Doll 8. Fragment #3 9. A Broken Light For Every Heart 10. Fragment #4 11. Step Out From Time 12. Today And It's Gone 13. Fragment #5 14. Nowhere To Be Found 15. Fragment #6
